Signs of Spring

Sign # 1
The first location was the perimeter of the field. It wasn't as cold as it had been previously in the week. There was a lot more greenery! There was honeysuckle blooming and several different birds could be heard chirping loudly. In the sunlight it was warmest, and the sun was very prominent on this day.



Sign # 2
Our second area was located by the pond. There were noticeable buds on a lot of the trees and the geese were no longer at the pond. Which was a sure sign of Spring. It was very windy. You could feel the wind blowing, which made it feel colder than it actually was. The water looked more blue because the sky was very clear on this pretty day.

Sign # 3
For sign three we were located at another area by the pond. In this area the sun was particularly prominent and this was the warmest of the four sites. You could not feel the wind in this area. It was a large open area alongside the edge of the pond. There were cat tails and other plants. The only thing you could hear was wind blowing elsewhere and sirens from the bus garage.

Sign # 4
Our final stop was alongside the road. There was grass on both sides that was very green. Green leaves could be seen growing, a sign of Spring! This area had the least amount of sun, but was not cloudy. It was windy again in this section of our adventure, and felt very cold.
